Starting out as an MUA can be expensive! These makeup artist discount cards definitely make building your kit a lot more affordable – so I would apply for as many as you are eligible for! Here are the ones I have got and know of, but if you come across anymore let me know and I’ll add them to the list!
To be eligible for the Makeup Artist discounts you’ll need to be able to prove you are a working makeup artist. Different companies ask for different proof so I’ll add what you’ll need under each brand! Some companies also offer student MUA discount programmes too, which I’ll add to the list below.

Pro discount: 35%
Student discount: 15%
Illamasqua
Pro discount: 30%-40% for MUA's
Student discount: 20%
Nars

I will keep adding to this with the more MUA discounts I come across!
Thanks
